The
new SI-TEX MDS Radar Sensor Series connect to your
SI-TEX ColorMax Wide, ColorMax Sea Link, ColorMax
Pro, ColorMax 15, Explorer Plus, or Trawl Plot 12SD
Charting Systems to add affordable full-featured Radar
capabilities. Also works with Standard
Horizon Charting Systems -- models CP180, CP180i, CP300,
CP300i, CPV350, CP500 and CPV550. The
MDS Radar Sensors are available in various models,choose
from the:
MDS-1
-2kW, 12.4" Radome, ranges from 1/28 to 24NM, a 7
° Horizontal
Beam Width
MDS-8
-2kW, 20" Radome, ranges from 1/28 to 24NM,
a 4.7 ° Horizontal
Beam Width
MDS-9 —4kW,
23.5" Radome, ranges from 1/8 to 36NM,
a 4° Horizontal Beam Width.
MDS-10-4 —4kW,
4' Open Array, ranges from 1/8 to 48NM, a 2.4° Horizontal Beam Width.
MDS-10-5 —4kW,
5' Open Array, ranges from 1/8 to 48NM, 1.7° Horizontal Beam Width.
Display
your raw radar image or overlay the radar image
on the new C-MAP MAX or NT+ charts for a complete
overview of vessel traffic, weather and fixed
target data.
Adjustable
VRM and EBL function provides precise range and
bearing information to any target displayed.
Target
intensity is shown in color shades to assist
the operator in differentiating between large
and small vessels and weather severity.
Other
features include interference rejection caused
by other radars operating nearby, FTC to reduce
Rain Clutter and STC to pick out targets hidden
by high seas and spray.
